  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:

  Generate Change Pointers:
  
  If change pointers are not being generated, you may need to manually trigger the generation of change pointers for the loan data. This can often be done through specific transaction codes or background jobs in SAP.
  
  
  
  Review Loan Data:
  
  Check the loan data for any inconsistencies or errors. Ensure that all required fields are filled out correctly and that the loan is in a valid state.
